Thanks in Advance!!

If I was to do it again, I would try the Invidia. :smile:

but the Milltek I got is pretty good.

 

I'm very happy with my Milltrk catback and headers

It depends what you are looking for: performance, looks, sound, weight savings...

-Performance: Magnaflow and Milltek seem to show the highest gains, but others aren't too far behind.
-Looks: The Invidia/Skunk is quite nice, as is the Quicksilver. However, aesthetics are subjective.
-Sound: Once again, subjective depending on what you are looking for. Magnaflow and Scorpion are relatively loud. Borla and Milltek are quieter and low. Single-side exhaust will have a "different" sound.
-Weight: You will want a single-side here; Alta, Quicksilver, NRP, Dinan (Dinan is not a true cat-back, but an axle back).

Borla Race with Miltek header

 

I'm verry proud of my Miltek Header and Catback

What are your requirements. One persons best exhaust may not some one elses.

I'm going to do the Milltek H+CB

 

I hide my head in shame.

Delta, how could you?

 

My requirements:
-I absolutely don't want harmon to sound like a rice burner (honda civics, etc. that's why I bought a MINI, to be different.)
-I want it to sound close to the same as the stock exhaust, but more powerful.
-I want it to be able to fit on with a JCW Kit.

Thanks in Advance!!

 

The Borla Sport, and the Megan Racing Exhaust would fit that bill. They both are very good sounding, but not over bearing. Both sound great when accelerating, but mild when cruising. Both also have shown power gains and would be a good choice.

They are similar designs, but install is a little diffrent on each. The megan you will need to make a change to one of the exhaust hangers, but the Borla has an 05 version available. The Megan can be modified at any exhaust shop for a small price, or at home if you plan to do the install your self.

Borla Sport: $769.00 (diffrent mufflers on the street mentioned)


Megan Racing: $420

 

I'd like to contribute my vote as an all smiles milltek user.

 

I cant believe there is such few reviews on the Invidia unit. Its craftmanship can not be duplicated by any current manufacturer. I've had the unit for a few weeks now and it is simply BAD ***!

 

AWD_scooby - where did you get yours? :smile:


My G35C's stock exhaust sounds 10x better than my Milltek, that's for sure.

 

very happy with my Borla Street, but have every intention of going Milltek within the next year

 

Love my Scorpion.. sounds like a bomb when lifting off.. really makes the mini sound like the old cooper S at the monte carol rally.. popping like crazy

 

I settled on the mini madness header and the milltek cat back, just waiting for it to get here.

 

I'm trying to get a group together because Randy at Webb will give us a discount.

 

Milltek Cat-Back Exhaust System, hands down!

 

How much?

 

Take a look down the page, and there is a direct answer to the question posed:

The group buy will depend on how many folks we get.

Hope that helps!

Totally! The quality and sound is the best of the MINI world.

Only lucky few who has it.

Miltek is my second choice thou.
